The Medline Gold Standard S.T.O.P. Safety Flag (Pack of 40) serves to alert the surgical team to carry out a Surgical Time Out Procedure (STOP) before an operation is executed.

Safety Flags can be placed over the intended incision site, on the mayo stand, or over instruments, and they can also be used for absorbing excess prep solution before electrosurgery.
